Switch off your wireless device when requested to do
so in hospitals, clinics or health care facilities. These
requests are designed to prevent possible interference
with sensitive medical equipment.
Aircraft
Switch off your wireless device whenever you are
instructed to do so by airport or airline staff.
Consult the airline staff about the use of wireless devices
on board the aircraft, if your device offers a ‘flight mode’
this must be enabled prior to boarding an aircraft.
Interference in cars
Please note that because of possible interference to
electronic equipment, some vehicle manufacturers
forbid the use of mobile phones in their vehicles unless
a handsfree kit with an external antenna is included in
the installation.
Explosive environments
Petrol stations and explosive atmospheres
In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres,
obey all posted signs to turn off wireless devices such as
your phone or other radio equipment.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include
fuelling areas, below decks on boats, fuel or chemical
transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal
powders.
Blasting Caps and Areas
Turn off your mobile phone or wireless device when in a
blasting area or in areas posted turn off “two-way radios”
or “electronic devices” to avoid interfering with blasting
operations.
Do not disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
Accidental short-circuiting can occur if a metallic object
such as a key, paper clip, or pen touches the terminals
of the battery.
Don't handle a damaged, smoking or leaking battery.
Do not allow the battery to get wet.
Do not puncture or crush the battery or allow it to be
subjected to any external pressure or force.
Interference
Care must be taken when using the phone in close
proximity to personal medical devices, such as
pacemakers and hearing aids.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum
separation of 15 cm be maintained between a mobile
phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference
with the pacemaker. To achieve this use the phone on
the opposite ear to your pacemaker and do not carry it
in a breast pocket.
Hearing Aids
People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants
may experience interfering noises when using wireless
devices or when one is nearby.
The level of interference will depend on the type of
hearing device and the distance from the interference
source, increasing the separation between them may
reduce the interference. You may also consult your
hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Medical devices
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer
to determine if operation of your phone may interfere
with the operation of your medical device.
